Application
VI. Application Fields & Case Studies
- Scenario: Connection of DN600 main pipeline in municipal water supply
- Configuration: PN16 slip-on flange, GGG40 material + epoxy coating
- Result: Resistant to soil corrosion (pH 6–8), service life ≥50 years
- Scenario: Steam pipeline in refinery (200°C, 1.6 MPa)
- Configuration: Class 300 weld-neck flange, GGG50 material + high-temperature oxidation-resistant coating
- Advantage: Maintains ≥90% strength at high temperatures, excellent creep resistance
- Scenario: Circulating water system in thermal power plant (DN1200)
- Configuration: PN10 large-diameter slip-on flange, GGG40 material + rubber gasket
